Book Reviews of Bear Attacks: Their Causes and Avoidance (revised edition)
Book Review: Excellent information for anyone interested in bears.
Summary: 5 Stars
I found this book to be the most informative guide to bears I have read. Anyone who spends time in bear country should read, and be familiar with, the information in this book. Some readers may be uncomfortable with the descriptions of the bear attacks, but they supplement the author's points and provide graphic illustration of the potential damage a bear can inflict. The author's analysis of the factors contributing to the bear attacks will help the reader understand bears and their behavior and what types of situations should be avoided. The recommendations on what to do if you encounter a bear are based on analysis of all the reliable reports since 1900. The author thoroughly researched the subject over a number of years. I would strongly recommend this book to anyone who spends time outdoors in bear country. The natural history descriptions and the section on bear signs are excellent.
